Imperfect
The first clutch of the year is now at 70 days and counting. Last year they hatched at 66 days.
First clutch (due momentarily) is 10 eggs from my Anery Stripe female, the paternity is in question... the father is either my snow motley female (the intended father) or my Anery het motley/amel/hypo (a "female" who might be male). I'm curious to see what happens!
Second clutch, not due until July 4th (if it hatches at 66 days, july 8th if it hatches at 70 days)... is 9 eggs from my normal het amel, het anery, het motley, same paternity as my first clutch.
The third clutch due July 26th (or 30th) is Creamsicle x Rootbeer het creamsicle. This was my largest and most disappointing clutch, the female laid 13 eggs and then became egg bound, laying another 5 eggs over the following 30 days. All the eggs laid after she was eggbound went bad, there are only 9 left incubating... of those only 4 actually appear viable with veins.
I did see my Snow Motley hooked up with my Anery who I suspect is a male, so I'm not 100% certain really whether they are both male trying to mate each other, or if the Anery is just behind the rest. The Anery IS gaining a lot of weight lately. I hope she IS a she and planning on laying a clutch, but I still haven't figured it out. Hopefully my clutch will be clearly 100% motley striped, which will lay to rest the paternity of the clutch.
Hopefully too, I'll be posting "They're Pipping" any MOMENT
Silly snakies!
